"To inspire, encourage,
motivate and educate"
Dear CIPA Member,
Please fill out the
following information if you are interested in being on the Young Authors
League (YAL) Speakers Team. The YAL is a volunteer speaker program whose
purpose is to enhance literacy of students attending primary and middle
schools partnering with CIPA. Schoolteachers and administrators are excited
about CIPA authors and speakers visiting their classes. Your presentation
may be on the subject matter of your book or on any topic related to
creating and publishing a book. Presentations are based on your area
of expertise.
You will have a captive
audience of young, eager faces and hearts that are excited to hear what you
have to say. You may be planting a seed in a child that will encourage them
to study, read, write and perhaps attain a dream that you have already
accomplished -- writing and publishing a book!
Presentations are done
on a volunteer basis. They last between 30-45 minutes. This is a wonderful
opportunity for all CIPA members. Here are a few of the benefits:
-
The fun of sharing your knowledge to help
others
-
Get experience speaking in front of an
audience and add this to your resume
-
Share your passion of reading, writing and
publishing
-
Know that you have played a part to
inspire, encourage, motivate and educate a child
